Nice "hazy" effect, Elvin. How do you get shots this close with a 70mm?  |

Mark many people wondered why I'm so close to birds with just a short lens. This is because I used a camouflage to hide my body and waited for an ambush. I can almost smell their breath  |

Now I see. Reminds me of my ROTC days where we make our own ghillie suits and wear them. It's hot wearing those. I admire your dedication to the study of our avian friends. |

Yes Mark those days when we used to march the grassy field and boodle fought with comrades. You're right, I learned camouflage technique in ROTC.
